Listen "Multivalent Batteries - Prof. M. Rosa Palacín"
Episode Synopsis
Current battery cell chemistries mostly rely on lithium. They frequenty consist of nickel and/or cobalt as well. Eventhough these three materials are not considered rare-earth elements, the amount of accessible raw material deposits are limited. Plus, as production volumes of lithium-ion batteries increase (and prices are shocking producers!), battery researchers are seeking for alternative innovative materials.
